How Our Quality Assurance Engineers Write Automated Testing Scripts for Applications

Here at Swan, our entire culture is built upon Quality Assurance. Because of the QA best practices, we have implemented, our clients’ applications are deployed free of bugs and errors. This ensures that applications run as they should, increasing users’ satisfaction.

We are lucky enough to facilitate the employment of many skilled Quality Assurance Engineers within our company. Our QA Engineers review the performance of our developer’s code through continual automatic and manual testing.

The Importance of Automated Testing Scripts

Our QA Engineers have found a healthy balance between manual and automated testing activities. Automated testing is a significant step along the road to continuous Agile delivery.

An Automated Testing Script is a set of instructions (written using a scripting/programming language) that is executed to verify that the application performs as expected. These testing scripts are used to cut down on manual testing activities and give us the ability to test the application 24/7.

Writing Requirments of Automated Testing Scripts

Well-written testing scripts prioritize a steady process and clear documentation.

When any of our QA Engineers sit down to write an automated testing script for an application, they clearly define why they are writing the script, what will be tested, and the parameters of the results.

Our QA Engineers’ keep their documentation processes under control to meet the following 5 requirements of quality code:

• Reliability
• Clarity
• Flexibility
• Maintainability
• Stability

When an automated script meets each one of these requirements, it will result in an automated testing activity that reveals real threats to the product, as well as reducing your time in code support.
